Hello- I need help in regaining control of my computer. I have run Ad-Aware, Spy-Sweeper, and Norton Anti-virus. Here is a logfile from hijack this. Thank you in advance.

Hello rpfeiffer , welcome to the TC.


I suggest you do this:

Run hijackthis. Hit None of the above, Click Do a System Scan Only. Put a Check in the box on the left side on these:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [TkBellExe] "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe" -osboot

O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [KB891711] c:\windows\SYSTEM\KB891711\KB891711.EXE

Close ALL windows and browsers except HijackThis and click "Fix checked"


1. Open My Computer
2. Right click on your hard drive that you wish to clean (C drive, for example)
3. In the context menu that opens, select properties
4. Under the general tab you should select Disk Cleanup
5. Windows will scan your drive which will take a few seconds/minutes
6. A box will display the various files you can remove.
Check all boxes except compress old files (If listed)
7. Click OK and windows will comply.

Restart your computer.

Reboot and "copy/paste" a new log file into this thread.
Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.

First- Thank you LDTate for your response. I did as you suggested and I really can't tell any difference. Where do I begin? As I am typing there is a window telling me that "This program has performed an illegal function and will be shut down (in the details section it says VSMON caused an invalid page fault in
module ZLCOMMDB.DLL at 017f:52806251.

If I leave this alone I seem to be able to continue, if I close it I may get a message stating "A fatal exception OE has occured at 0028:C0031580 in VxD—, This was called from 0028:C00315BF in VxD— (and this has led to "A fatal excption OE has occured at 0028:C0031B13), I have been able to press any key & continue Or press Ctrl-Alt-Delete to restart.
Most of the time the page freezes and I have to do an Emergency Power Falure (I push the on\off button) in order to try to get the system to work. My printer does not respond, I have to try several times to get online (several Emergency Power Failures), I'm hoping I can finish this post. I don't think I have anything going on here that a hammer could'nt take care of but I' follow your advice. Here is my latest HijackThis log.

The errors you are getting like, VSMON, are from ZoneAlarm. Use Add/Remove Programs and remove: ZoneAlarm Reboot and let me know what happens. I will give you a link to another Firewall.
Post #5
I attempted to remove ZoneAlarm but a window popped up to tell me that TrueVector Internet Monitor not uninstalled- The uninstaller was unable to stop the TrueVector software services. I looked again and ZoneAlarm was still there. Tried a second time with the same result.

201567

try Alt/Ctrl/Del and end the process for:
zlclient.exe
VSMON.EXE

Is TrueVector listed in the Add/Remove Programs? If so, remove it first.
Now try to remove ZoneAlarm
Post #7
LDTate- There is no TrueVector to uninstall and when I use Alt/Ctrl/Del I get no response (no window, no nothing). Also, when I click on the start button it takes a while for the window to pop up. I do appreciate your help here.
Post #9
I am using all 3 at the same time, I just get no response. I think that if I push them enough I'll shut my computer off. I do not want to do this as it's so time consuming to get it to allow to get back online.
Post #10
I suggest you do this:

Run hijackthis. Hit None of the above, Click Do a System Scan Only. Put a Check in the box on the left side on these:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Zone Labs Client] C:\Program Files\Zone Labs\ZoneAlarm\zlclient.exe

O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [TrueVector] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\ZONELABS\VSMON.EXE -service

Close ALL windows and browsers except HijackThis and click "Fix checked"


click Start> Run> type in Msconfig tap enter key.
look in the Startup. Uncheck these if listed.
Zone Labs
ZoneAlarm


After you uncheck it, you'll be using Selective startup. When you restart,
you'll see the box popup that tells you that, just put a Check in the Box to not show that when you startup.


"copy/paste" a new log file into this thread.
Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.
Post #11
I did as you requested. After rebooting I attempted and was successful in uninstalling ZoneAlarm. The computer is a whole lot better but a tad slower in its reaction time than I'm used to (with regards to clicking on something and having it load. One thing confuses me though, I've used ZoneAlarm for over a year with none of these problems. Here is a copy of my latest logfile.

Thank you for your help. This started last Friday when my daughter was online. The computer froze on her. I have not downloaded from ZoneAlarm in a while. Thank you again. I will try your firewall.

I apologize for taking so long to respond as I was out of town. I do still have issues with my computer but I don't know if they are related to what you helped me with. I still am having problems with my printer (I could not re-install the driver and I have lost my ability to copy CDs. I seem to have lost my E drive??
